Payment Security
Taking your security seriously
At Simply Bearings Ltd we ensure that shopping online is as safe as shopping in your local supermarket.
Your browser automatically enters secure mode as soon as you access the order form, before any payment details are entered.
You can confirm that you are shopping in a secure environment by checking for "https://" at the beginning of the domain name in your browser. When "https" is visible, it means Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology is active. SSL provides a secure, encrypted connection that prevents personal information from being exposed.
Simply Bearings Ltd is a Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant UK company and operates as a Level 1 PCI compliant vendor.
This means our networks and servers have undergone rigorous testing to ensure we use the latest security technology, that our server operating systems remain up to date and that our internal anti-virus protection is of commercial grade. Level 1 represents the highest standard of payment security in the industry.
To achieve compliance, we have passed strict auditing and security checks conducted by merchant banks.
We use PayPal and HSBC to securely process payment transactions.
Simply Bearings staff will never see your credit card details during or after this process.
For your own safety, we recommend that you close your internet browser when you have finished shopping online, especially if you share a computer.
